The men in the car ducked when they heard gunshots from the vehicle behind. The man in the driver's seat fell out of the car just as a girl grabbed the keys right out of his hand.
"Dammit!" he yelled, as he reached back for them to no avail. The girl was already gone. Then he heard clanking in the back of the truck. "The hostage!!" he screamed, scrambling back to the bed of the truck to find their kidnaped girl unbound.

Lana gasped. The girl from earlier had come to help her. Her eyes could barely take in the images of the girl cutting the ropes on her wrists and ankles when the man from the truck appeared again. Lana was somewhat frozen, but stumbled around on her hands and knees, trying to get out of the truck. the sudden stop of the truck left her a bit disoriented in her sense of balance.

The second man hopped out of the passenger's seat, bearing a shotgun. He was skinny, and looked like a hillbilly to an extent. "Ya' want me to finish em Frank?" the man yelled.
The other man, who was apparently called Frank, was still trying to apprehend Lana and Lacey.
"You idiot! We don't wanna kill 'em! hit em in the leg if you can!" Frank hollered. The man fired a couple of shots. Two of them clanked against the metal of the car; a miss. The third wasn't so Lucky.

Lana felt a throbbing pain split her kneecap. She had been hit.

"Ill die soon from exhaustion if I don't get rest, but yeah I am fine." Rhell said lifting his head, then dropping it again. Rhell simply lay breathing with his sword at his side. Rhell turned his head. He saw Toran on the ground.
"You okay kid?"

Mel started to stand up, then fell of one knee. He had scraped his entire shin upon falling. It stung with the dust that had gotten into it. He limped over to one of the men (Not soldier) "Do you have something I can bandage myself up with?" Mel asked. He was handed some medical tape and He wrapped it around his leg.

"I hardly know myself." Rhell answered. He looked at the slaughtered bodies around them. "Did I do that?" Rhell started to try and stand, but fell back down. "This is gonna set me back..."

One of the men(not soldier) walked up to Rhell. He knelt down to his level and shared his report just as his superior ordered him to .
"I'm so sorry we couldn't come here sooner. Someone revealed our location to the millitary and we had to do the best we could to avoid them. We managed to find the rest of the soldiers and we secured each of the survivors. However, your efforts have greatly facilitated those of our own. However, there is one thing that is strange. It seemed like around thirty or so soldiers just dropped dead from the looks of things. We also saw one soldier that appears to be connected to those deaths. He just became slower and calmer until eventually he was too lazy even to breathe. Was that your doing?"

Lacey stood frozen with her both her gun and her stunner in the air. She knew she couldn't keep this going. She was standing right beside Lana and knew she needed medical attention and fast. Lacey knew what she had to do. Underneath her stunner was a button she could push to disperse the electric energy. She only had to move her pinky ever so slightly to push the button. The blast would be instantaneous. The two men wouldn't be able to fire and they would be out cold. She pushed the hidden button and the stun wave shot out, only aiming for Lana's captors.

Rhell looked around him. "She has been gone too long..." Rhell began to stand up, slowly. He had recovered quickly for some reason. He then saw a familiar face, and forgot about his fatigue. He grabbed his sword and ran over to Mel. "Hey!"

Mel looked at Rhell as he ran over. Then he felt his firm arm on his shoulder. He looked happy for a moment, then his smile became wry. "What about the two others?" Mel asked.

"We are going to get them, come on." Rhell grabbed a scopeless M-40 (A rifle from the 60's) along with several extra clips. He jumped into a jeep and Mel followed. Rhell drove after where Lacey had gone. He saw the situation. He saw Lana in the trunk bleeding, Lacey at her side with some kind of weapon. And two men lying on their backs not moving. He got out and ran over.

Mel ran alongside Rhell. He ran over to look at Lana while Rhell spoke with Lacey. Mel looked at Lana's knee, there was no medical kit in the jeep so he was in a panic. He looked at his own knee. He decided Lana needed the bandaged more than he did. He unwrapped it, remembering that he had healthy blood last he checked. He quickly wrapped it around Lana's wound. As he knelt his open cut mixed with the pool of Lana's blood. He felt an odd sensation.

"Good job." Rhell complimented Lacey. "Whatever you did to save her worked." Rhell shook Lacey's hand. "I'm Rhell if you were wondering, you are?" Rhell didn't have time to really hear the response. Several fleeing soldiers came down the path and saw them. One threw a grenade and it landed next to Rhell's jeep gas tank.

Mel saw the explosive land next to the gas. He knew it would explode and kill all of them. He held his hands out in front of him as some sort of feeble attempt at blocking it. A green cube formed around the grenade and it exploded inside the shield, causing the field to shatter and disappear. Mel looked at his hands in awe.

Rhell picked aimed his rifle and shot two of the three while the other one ran away. As the two soldiers squirmed Rhell stabbed one with his sword and the other he smashed in the neck with the gun's butt. "What the hell was that?"

"Hardly, but ill get the medic." Rhell said. He put the rifle next to Lacey. "Mel, use that handgun of yours to keep watch. Just point, pull the trigger, and hope for the best." Rhell jumped into the Jeep. He kicked up a cloud of dust as he drove.

Mel nodded and looked at Lacey. "Lacey, are you ok?"
